Hello All, 

We are using SWFTOOLs to convert PDF images, scanned from various multi 
function printers into FlexPaper with PDF2SWF. 

The issue we are having is that the resulting SWF file will be 10 to 15 times 
the size of the original PDF image. 

If the PDF is a non-image PDF then there is not the mutiplication of the size 
of the file. I have seen 3MB Image PDF files turn into 45MB SWF files by 
passing them through PDF2SWF 

We have played with some of the command line switches with the PDF2SWF, but 
that results in a resolution that is too low to make the image usable. 

Our UI is written in flex/flash, and the users scroll through the Flex Paper 
version of the document. Some of these documents are 100,150, 200 pages. So the 
ballooning of the size of the document consumes a lot of bandwidth and memory. 

Has anyone seen this before and perhaps has a work around/patch to prevent the 
SWF file expansion to 10x the original? 

Regards, 

Tom
